Vehicle story

Check out this totally awesome 1981 Volkswagen Westfalia in Assuan Brown! Its a blast from the past with its period-correct “Boogie Woogie” interior that you can only find in early 80s air-cooled Vanagons. Picture this: two super cool captain chairs up front that swing around, and a cozy Z bed in the back that easily transforms from a couch into a bed that sleeps two. But wait, theres more! Pop the top and climb upstairs to discover another fold-out bed that accommodates two additional people. Its like a mobile slumber party!

This groovy camper van is equipped with all the essentials for your adventures. Youve got a fridge to keep your snacks and drinks chilled, a sink for all your washing-up needs, and a stove to cook up some delicious meals on the go. Plus, theres an exterior electricity connection so you can easily hook up at a campsite. Its the perfect setup for those epic road trips and camping escapades.

Now lets talk about the ride itself. With its new wheels, tires, and suspension, this van is ready to hit the road. While its not designed for intense off-roading, its a champion when it comes to off-pavement exploration. Imagine finding that hidden gem of a spot, away from the crowds, where you can truly connect with nature. And guess what? You can even enjoy your favorite tunes on the go thanks to the Bluetooth connectivity, and theres a mic for making phone calls while cruising down the highway. How rad is that?

Under the hood, you’ll find a mighty 2.0-liter air-cooled engine paired with a 4-speed manual transmission. Now, its important to note that this beauty requires a little patience behind the wheel. Its not like driving a modern car, but trust me, the experience is so worth it. Sure, it might be a bit slower climbing up those mountains, but think of it as an opportunity to soak in the breathtaking views. You’ll be cruising in second or third gear at 25-45 MPH uphill, and reaching a max of 60 MPH on even surfaces in fourth gear. Just roll down the windows, let the wind tousle your hair, and enjoy the journey.

Oh, and did I mention the cool tint on the windows? Upfront, you’ve got ceramic UV tint to keep the sun at bay, while the rest of the windows sport a darkened tint, keeping the interior cool and comfortable even on those hot summer days.

So, my fellow adventurer, are you ready to hop into this retro-cool time machine? Get ready to pop the tunes on, drop the windows, and cruise down the coast in style. Just remember, this camper van is all about taking it slow and enjoying the ride. Buckle up and get ready for the ultimate throwback adventure!

The van will be freshly washed with a full tank of gas ready for you to enjoy. I’ll ask for reimbursement after a top-off at the gas station. But feel free to refill the gas yourself if you prefer (91 only).

* Nearest preferred gas station, which has a good selection of treats and refreshments at 15255 Sherman Way, Van Nuys, CA, 91405
